Werner Steingaß becomes the successor of
Reinhold Schmidt elected

 
After three terms as Chairman of the Paper Recycling Association, Reinhold Schmidt announced at the General Assembly at the bvse Annual Meeting that he would no longer run for office. Werner Steingaß has succeeded in Bremen.

"The decision was not easy," said Schmidt, but he wanted to give in the sense of the Association on the basis of a change of personnel the opportunity to bring new impetus in the policy of the Association Board.

In 2013, Schmidt was elected President of the Waste Paper Division at the Bureau of International Recycling (BIR), where he was primarily tasked with expanding the status of the recovered paper industry worldwide and counteracting artificial barriers to the free and fair trade of waste paper.
